New signing Robinho and centre-back Jonathan Woodgate have been included in Real Madrid's 20-strong squad to face promoted Cadiz in their opening league match of the season on Sunday.

Robinho, who completed his $30-million move to Real from Santos on Friday, trained with his new team mates including fellow Brazil internationals Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos and Julio Baptista for the first time on Saturday.

Real boss Vanderlei Luxemburgo, who also coached Robinho at Santos, said the 21-year-old would not start the game against Cadiz but could make an appearance.

Woodgate, who was sidelined for his first season at Real because of a thigh injury, made his debut for Real when he was given a brief four-minute run-out at the end of the pre-season friendly against the MLS All-Stars on Wednesday.

The 25-year-old will not play against Cadiz but will travel with his team mates as part of Luxemburgo's plans for his gradual introduction after his 16-month injury lay-off.

England striker Michael Owen, whose future at the Bernabeu is still in the balance after an offer from Newcastle United and possible interest from Liverpool, was also included in the squad.
